PHOTOGRAPHY
For me, photography is a way to enjoy intuition, playfulness and intention. Primarily I use 35mm color film, scanned and often paired together in a myriad of ways that create balance (color, shape, thematic content). Sometimes I have no conscious reason for grouping images side-by-side. I just know that I like it. Then later, various meanings begin to surface. Some times hidden messages emerge. Film seems to be "conscious" in that way. It can tell us things about the nature of reality, even predict the future...
I find that white boarders and black framing amplifies color vibrancy and helps center my attention as a viewer. This aspect of centering the mind is a common goal in my photography. It is the means through which subtle dimensions of reality, those insights which are "Yogic" and difficult to define verbally, are made accessible. Above all, my motivations are to express something of a great love and respect for all beings, and a desire for goodness to manifest through self-awareness, self-regulation and self-transcendence.
